However during the capillary fluid exchange (where water, amino acids, and oxygen cross the capillary wall into the extracellular fluid), fluids don’t travel very far into the surrounding tissue, and even less when there are roadblocks. Which is why there needs to be a ‘clear road’, free from debris, so that these nutrients can get to their target. This is why lymphatic drainage is important to the health of your skin!

It’s not only what goes into the body, it’s what goes into the cell. Just because you have oxygen, nutrients and water in your body, that doesn’t mean they are reaching the cell. You need supply AND you need drainage before supply. Lymphatic Therapy works by applying transient pressure to the skin to assist with activating these processes, creating a clean environment for cells to flourish in and feeding the cells fresh oxygenated and nutrient rich blood.

Lymphatic Therapy is indicated for maintaining skin health, as part of a skin health pathway, or as pre and post support to advanced skin rejuvenation – creating a healthy responsive skin, and assisting with healing and recovery.
